I just meant that when someone who's in charge of club membership is also able to take the initiative in editing posts, it makes things really convenient.

In other news- 36,000?! Holy carp. I was happy to hit 2,000 the other day. wink

I like long books, to a point. Too short, and there's not enough story. Too long, and I get bored with it.

actually...Amazon.com has it listed at over 550 pages, IIRC.


And the other two are in the 350ish page range.


I'll double check those numbers.

Are you sure Amazon has it listed at 544 pages? In paperback, that's quite enormous. I saw a count of 443 in Lit, and thought even that was quite big for a paperback.

I read a few reviews over in Lit and it looks quite good. Dingo in particular posted a good review in the speculation thread. Looks like I'll be poaching this book off l_w sooner than I expected...

Can't wait for next Tuesday. I need a new SW book.

Don't live in NY, but I'll agree. wink

Anyhow. I believe Joiner King is 544 or so pages. However, about the first hundred pages are the Ylesia E-book. So it just sounds longer than it is. happy
